Description / Upavon Atomic Egg Chenille 12mm
The Upavon Atomic Egg Chenille (12mm) is a high-impact, technical fly-tying material made to create large, high-visibility egg patterns and "Blobs." This 12mm variant is the largest in the range, providing maximum water displacement and a substantial profile that is easily tracked in deep or discoloured water.
What sets the "Atomic" range apart is its hybrid fibre construction. It blends soft, translucent fibres with integrated fluorescent strands, creating a "glowing" effect that is highly reactive to UV light. This dual-action fibre mix ensures the fly maintains a perfect, spherical "milky" appearance when wet, while the fluorescent core provides a piercing trigger point that fish can home in on from a distance.
Key Features:
12mm Wide Profile: Specifically designed for large eggs and competition-style "Blobs" where maximum visibility is the priority.
UV Reactive Fibres: Engineered to absorb and reflect UV light, ensuring the fly remains visible even in low-light conditions or at depth.
Consistent Spherical Shape: The fibre density is tuned to prevent collapsing, allowing you to achieve a professional, round finish with just a few turns around the hook shank.
Strong Micro-Core: Built on a thin, durable core that reduces bulk at the head of the fly and provides a secure foundation for heavy-duty tying.
Available 12mm
Colour Guide:
Toxic Green: A piercing, high-vis lime green that excels in murky water.
Photon Yellow: An intense, fluorescent chartreuse-yellow for maximum contrast.
Isotope Pink: A classic, "hot" fluorescent pink with heavy UV activity.
Half Life Pink: A subtler, "milky" pink shade.
Bright White: A stark, pure white—perfect for "dead egg" imitations or high-contrast hotspots.
Burst Orange: A vivid, glowing fluorescent orange.
Specifications:
Fibre Diameter: 12mm
Length: 2m per pack
